520 * don't provide a 'compress' link since it breaks things, but provide
521 an 'uncompress' link since it's useful.

531 * switch targets in the Makefile to also install the links called
532 'compress' and 'uncompress' since some utilities care about these,
533 and we're unlikely to ever have a 'compress' package because of the
534 intellectual property issues.
